Testimonials from some VFIA Members.

“I was exposed to Logotherapy via an elective in my undergrad and found the concepts really suited my philosophy and how I wanted to deliver counselling services to my clients. I find Logotherapy an effective adjunctive therapy and believe its messages can be used for the majority of clients. The concept of finding meaning with our lives is particularly important in today’s society when we are so busy with everyday life and can’t help but wonder what the bigger picture is. Often a different perspective or way of thinking can make all the difference and provide a new found drive and meaning to our suffering or hard work.”

“I came to Logotherapy Studies more than 3 years ago via a google search.
I was experiencing some personal challenges and found that Viktor Frankl’s work inspired me to ask different questions of myself and the ways in which I wanted to contribute to life.
I am a Social Worker by background and currently work with people who have had a traumatic injury. I also volunteer with children, using creativity to provide diversion from pain, boredom or to assist with self-regulation.
Logotherapy has instilled within me the importance of discovering the ways in which each person is unique. I see my role as working with people to help them identify what is meaningful to them and help them utilise their strengths and resources to get there.”

“In my work as a thanatologist and a hospital humanist pastoral carer I was honored to have many conversations with people at the end of their life’s journeys.
It was during that time I met Paul McQuillan who introduced me to logotherapy. Logotherapy to me was the missing piece of my education and skill set that helped immensely with my discussions with people experiencing existential distress.”
